A man is the whole encyclopedia of facts.

Congratulate yourself if you have done something strange, extravagant and broken the monotony.

Those who are esteemed umpires of taste, are often persons who have acquired some knowledge of admired pictures or sculptures, andhave an inclination for whatever is elegant; but if you inquire whether they are beautiful souls, and whether their own acts are like fair pictures, you learn that they are selfish and sensual. Their cultivation is local, as if you should rub a log of dry wood in one spot to produce fire, all the rest remaining cold.

You have a place to live in this world which no other man can occupy; hence no competitors.

Who makes and keeps the Jew or the Negro base, who but you, who exclude them from the rights which others enjoy?

A day is a miniature eternity.

Every word was once a poem.
